| Family Travels Reims Champagne Region |
| We stopped in Reims to take a break in the long drive from France to Germany. Reims Cathedral is one of the more interesting churches in Europe. (we have visited so many) Touring the champagne caves were fun... tasting the champagne was even better. |







| Visiting Piper Heidsieck was actually very important to us. We celebrated our engagement, our wedding and later the birth of each child with a bottle of Piper Heidsieck |
